I'm watching this show "american pasttime".

It's about a japanese family living in the US when Japan bombed pearl habour. One of the sons enlisted to join the army.

I think this is especially important. That should we choose any country to live in permanently, we should pledge our alliegance to that country. Imagine people who seek citizenship in Singapore and jump back to their "homeland" at the slightest sign of trouble in their new land. Sitting on the fence will cause harm not only to yourself, but to your fellow expatriates. People born there will start forming biaseness against the "foreigner" citizens.

As far as I am concerned, tracing my roots back to wherever it may be in China is totally bull. Yes I am a Chinese. But I am Chinese in race, not nationality. The Earth was one big chunk when it all started anyway. It doesn't make a difference just cuz it seperated. Yup, I am a firm believer of friends from the world over, but my pride only lies in my citizenship.




I'm feeling unbelievably nua this week. next week.. shall start the gears rolling next week. But yeah, since the holidays started, I've been feeling much happier since before exams. All the job rejections because of grades. Day in day out of subjects I don't feel for. All is good though. Spurs me on to focus on what truly matters to me. So I make the right choice in choosing the first career step. E-strat's starting soon. nice..

I realise the good thing about blogging is that it reminds me of my aspirations. I'm the kind who clicks on every hyperlink in a wikipedia article and gets distracted from my original search. The good thing is that I get a good variation of knowledge. The bad thing is that I take longer than I should to get a task done.
